23 strategy modules. 19 FX symbols. One portfolio.
FOUNDATION EA is a multi-strategy Forex portfolio developed for MetaTrader 5. The complete system operates from one EURUSD M30 chart while every module uses its own internal symbol, M30, H1 or H4 timeframe, entry logic, trading session, spread threshold and basket parameters.
FOUNDATION EA Live Forward Test
Portfolio Approach
The EA combines 23 independently configured mean-reversion and controlled reversal modules across 19 FX symbols.
Each module trades and manages its positions separately. Strategies can be enabled or disabled individually without changing the internal timeframe of the other modules.
Exact entry parameters remain internal to the EA.
Basket Management
A valid signal opens the first position of a strategy basket. Depending on the module and market movement, additional positions may be opened at ATR-based distances.
Positions belonging to the same strategy are managed as one combined basket. The take-profit is a cash target for the complete basket and is not multiplied automatically when additional volume is opened.
Commission and accumulated swap are included in the net basket-exit calculation.
The Standard profile activates swap-adjusted break-even management after 14 days. An aged basket may close when its combined result reaches break-even or better after costs. It is not forced to close at a loss exactly on day 14.
Exposure Controls
FOUNDATION EA includes separate limits for:
- Maximum lot per order
- Maximum combined lots per strategy
- Maximum combined lots per symbol
- Maximum positions per symbol
- Maximum total portfolio lots
- Maximum total positions
- Maximum active baskets
- Maximum orders per basket
Every enabled limit must allow a new order. A high per-order limit does not override a lower strategy, symbol or portfolio limit.
Execution and Protection
- Individual strategy spread thresholds
- Optional global spread override
- Separate magic number for every module
- Automatic broker symbol-suffix detection
- Strategy-specific session filters
- Friday entry cutoff
- Emergency ATR stop
- Daily equity-loss control
- Floating portfolio-loss control
- Optional correlation guard
- Optional hedge logic
- Configurable Prop Firm mode
Optional execution variation can apply an account-seeded entry delay and small target or emergency-stop variation. This function is disabled by default and changes the tested execution when enabled.
Prop Firm mode provides additional risk controls but does not guarantee successful completion of an evaluation.

The on-chart panel displays:
- Balance and equity
- Floating profit or loss
- Daily drawdown
- Open portfolio lots
- Strategy and symbol lot limits
- Active baskets
- Open positions
- Active symbols

Important Information
Before live use, run a real-tick backtest with the intended broker and verify symbol names, spread, commission, swap, leverage, margin requirements and contract specifications.
